"In their ruling, the justices found it was a matter for the European court to decide whether the process to deprive Ms Begum of British citizenship should have considered whether she was a potential victim of trafficking.
The Supreme Court justices also affirmed an earlier ruling which found those concerns had no material bearing on the decision under UK law."
Why are they saying that? It is a matter for the UK judicial system to decide on matters of law in the UK. And they wonder why people are taking to the streets.
The highest court in teh UK has stated that it is no for them to make the final decision on whether a person has UK citizenship or not. What other country (outside those which subscribe to te ECHR) would pu up with that?
It is precisely this sort of overruling situation that ensured we had to leave the EU, regardless how vulnerable some citizens feel without an outside elite to control us.
So why have we only gone part way and are still in the thrall of European courts ?
I know some claim we don't have to comply with it's decisions but to do otherwise goes against the idea of rule of law. And the very idea our courts explicitly state they will yield to such an external court, and wash their hands of making any final decision, is beyond rational comprehension.
Imagine a white girl, some 14 years of age, who lived in a northern town. This same girl has been groomed and then abused by a fiendish gang with roots in the Indian sub-continent. After a time she escapes from their clutches and wants to remake her life.
How are we to treat her now she's a young adult? Should she be helped because she was a child victim or treated with contempt because she's no better than she should be?
